Ahh, so maybe this is where some think I'm wrong (maybe I am!) You don't expect them to see an increased pace if you maintain your current effort?? I'm certain I can get lighter wheels up to speed faster, up hills/mountains faster, etc. Maybe I'm confusing people by saying speed when I really mean my avg speed over a distance thus my pace.
